Since he already filed his return, he needs to amend it to make any changes. He should wait until his return has been accepted.
He should enter his Roth IRA contributions into TurboTax, because:
- He might qualify for the Saver’s Credit
- This will record his Roth IRA basis, which can be useful for future tax calculations:
To report Roth IRA contribution:
- Sign into your TurboTax account
- Open or continue to your return
- In the search bar, type ira contributions and select the Jump to link in the search results
- We'll take you to the Traditional IRA and Roth IRA screen, where you can start the IRA interview
